This research paper: A 7 page essay/research paper that explores critical opinion and Bronte's classic novel. Popular interpretation of the novel has traditionally seen this bond as making Catherine and Heathcliff the "greatest lovers in the history of the novel" and their intense bond as a "manifestation of perfect love" (Tyler 167). However, other critics have argued with this interpretation and place an altogether different slant on what ties these two characters. This examination of literature and Bronte's novel finds that these critics present the more persuasive argument and the unbreakable bond between Catherine and Heathcliff appears to be based more on psychological codependency than on romantic passion. In fact, Bronte, by contrasting this relationship with others in the novel, that is, Catherine's relationship with Edgar Linton, seems to suggest that there are bonds that are far deeper than those between husband and wife. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
